PROCESSES OF DE-RE-TERRITORIALIZATION AND MULTI-TERRITORIALITY OF VENEZUELANS IN THE NORTHWEST REGION OF THE STATE OF RIO DE JANEIRO

ABSTRACT In the study of geography, territory mainly aims at understanding the power relations reproduced within a certain space. In post-modernity, it gains new attributes and perspectives, regularly readapting and fragmenting itself. Even in current times, multiterritoriality is reproduced from the context of globalization, leading by the migratory flows, thus allowing new (re)adaptations. It is in this context that the current work discusses new territorial processes referring to Venezuelans moving to other territories, which until then were not included in such processes, now representing new destinations, being (re)modified and obtaining unprecedented aspects, such as the Northwest Fluminense region, which due to the interiorization policy, was impacted by new migratory dynamics. With the objective of identifying the territorial developments related to the processes of displacement of Venezuelans, it is proposed to clarify the question of multiterritoriality in the globalized world, represented especially by the network-territories and the increase of diasporas. With a qualitative methodology that encompasses a bibliographic review on the proposed theme, it is considered relevant to highlight such unprecedented dynamics, discussing the impact of migratory movements in spaces far from the traditional axis of the capitals and large Brazilian urban centers, such as the small cities located in the interior of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Based on a qualitative methodology that encompasses a bibliographic review on the proposed theme, it is understood to be relevant to highlight these unprecedented dynamics, especially with the current complexity of political-legal and spatial devices, discussing or impacting two migratory movements in spaces far from the traditional one between the capitals and two large Brazilian urban centers, as well as the small municipalities located in the interior of the state of Rio de Janeiro
